Amateur and professional filmmakers from the Boise, the Treasure Valley, Idaho, and the greater Mountain West region have been invited to premier their short films (15 minutes and under) in a variety of genres. This year's theme is MAGIC.

The past year they have gone through scriptwriting, casting, set production, acting, directing, editing, and more to create short films from scratch. They will be premiered at the festival alongside the submissions from local and regional filmmakers!
Food and drinks will be available for purchase.
